Transformation Graeme Sterne 2006

We are new creations in Christ Transformation We are new creations in Christ II Corinthians 5:17 What does this mean? No more sin? Changed personality?

We are forgiven “If we claim to be without sin we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness” I John 1:8-9

We are being transformed “Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom. And we … are being transformed into His likeness with ever increasing glory, which comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.” II Corinthians 3:17,18

How does this work? It’s like baking a cake 1. First you must have a recipe in mind 2. Then you need ingredients 3. And a place to bake the cake 4. You mix the ingredients together 5. And place the cake in the oven 6. Heat is applied 7. And at the right time, out comes a cake!

What are the ingredients? The person Psalm 139 Forgiveness John 1:12 Spirit of God in us Galatians 4:6 Word of God John 17:17 Prayer – from us and for us James 5:16 Other Christians Hebrews 10:24,25 Events and people around us Romans 8:28,29 Our attitude John 7:17

Our Attitude “…the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure, then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.” James 3:17
